Slice of Life #82: The "Dash"

Recently I have been asking myself, "What is holding me back?" There are some things I want to accomplish that I feel I should have already done, but still have neglected to take the steps to make them happen. It's not that they're hard or out of reach - it's simply a matter of, "there's always tomorrow." It's that dash in the middle of here and there that gets in the way.

So this week's slice of life is, "What's your dash in the middle?" Is it getting on the treadmill?Buying that CD to learn a new language? Is it taking a class so you can get that raise? Making a phone call to start repairs in a relationship? Booking the flight so you'll finally take that vacation?

I posted this song because I love how they show each boy stuck in a situation - immobilized. And then each one moves into "the dash." Whether you dare to move or not is up to you - first, let's write. ;)

For the record, this is not my original concept. Cricket originated the idea back in 2007/2008 (?) - however, she stopped the meme in 2009. This blog is different in that she was trying to write a book using the different blogger's posts - I am simply giving a prompt with the hope that you'll share with the rest of us as well as your posterity.

We all know we should write these stories down. So often we don't think we have anything interesting to share. Sometimes working in this venue can jog the memory or creativity, to where we realize we have more to share than we thought we did.
